In chapter one, Ryan and Deci (2017) talk about need-supportive versus need-thwarting environments. Please describe an educational environment that you found to be either need-supportive or need-thwarting (either as a student or as an educator) and explain why. Then, briefly discuss some implications of this.
What was your biggest takeaway from chapter 14? What implications might it have in your current position or a future position?
What are a few ways that intrinsic motivation/autonomy support could be fostered in a learning environment that you’re familiar with?
